tell your mate that on californication they change speeds like 10 times.. I'm pretty sure its the guitarist thats losing time and the drummer is just speeding up with him.

edit- nevermind, its both of them....lmao but listen to the solo- the drummer man.. its cool that shes a girl but she needs to keep the beat.

Your guitarist needs to brush up on his technique a bit in californication. And they do change speeds loads. Vocals are good. Yeh the drummer also needs to listen to the song and figure out what chad actually plays. And the solo is pretty bad for timing.. not too bad though.

They sure chose their songs the right way considering the (exclusively feminine) reactions to the calling ditty! The vocals are reasonable enough, but the absence of a bass makes it a bit uncohesive... the Chili Peppers and the Calling are both one guitar outfits, they should make their lesser talented guitarist go play bass, if they're having such trouble finding one.

They are extremely boring to watch. I prefer bands that move around and "rock out". The guitarists looks extremely stiff and uncomfortable on stage. As for crits for their music, well everything has been said. The tempo changes in Californication bugs me.

*edit*
The solo in Cali sucks as well =/.

Well, I think you should change the bios, in my opinion, it just sounds dorky. And of all the songs you chose "Wherever You Will Go", oh, well.

And yeah, uhm keep rockin'

Didn't listen to the songs as my connection is so slow, it's travelling backwards, but I had a great time reading the guestbook - it's proper playground politics in there. Concludes with the drummer, or possibly singer saying

"Fúck this band, you're all cócks x"

Nice

I'm sure someone just used that as an alias.
